It’s a given that while London has many great parks and green spaces, every one of us occasionally, desperately wants to be ‘free range’.

To stroll through emerald fields, explore ancient woodlands, and just generally escape the people, the cars, and the noise.

Amersham, at the end of the Metropolitan Line, is the perfect place to do so. And, incidentally, to refuel from all your countryside pursuits at The Grocer at 15. Or The Grocer at 91. You can’t go wrong with either.
